I am profoundly delighted to join your family, friends, and well-wishers to celebrate your birthday today.
Your Excellency, without mincing words, your life’s narrative is a compelling story that transcends mere chronology; but it accentuates your embodiments which include but not limited to visionary leadership, resilience, excellence, and above all, selfless service to humanity.
Undeniably, your foray into politics has been nothing short of extraordinary. Emerging from the grassroots, you climbed the political ladder with grace and unyielding determination, carning the trust and support of the people.
Your ascension as Governor of Cross River State has again brought to the fore your transformational leadership. Your leadership style is not merely about steering the ship: it is about charting a course toward a future that is brighter, prosperous, and reflective of the yearnings and aspirations of the people of Cross River State.
Under your watch, our dear state is witnessing good governance, unprecedented growth, and development in health, education, agriculture, infrastructure, economy, social welfare, security, environment and many others.
Today, we celebrate a selfless leader whose tenacity of purpose, dedication, and commitment to the people remain unflinching as evident in the uncommon transformation of Cross River State into one of the most vibrant and frontline states in Nigeria.
On behalf of the peace-loving people of Calabar Municipality/Odukpani Federal Constituency, I pray God to imbue you with more grace, wisdom, and robust health to successfully pilot the affairs of the state.
Happy birthday, Your Excellency.
